1And Hashem spoke unto Moshe in the midbar of Sinai, in the Ohel Mo'ed, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they were come out of Eretz Mitzrayim, saying,
2Take ye the rosh (top amount, census) of kol Adat Bnei Yisroel after their mishpekhot, by the bais of their avot, with the number of their shmot, every zachar by their head count;
3From twenty years old and upward, all that are able-bodied to serve in tzava b'Yisroel (army in Yisroel); thou and Aharon shall number them by their tzva'ot (legions).
4And with you there shall be a man of every tribe; every one Rosh of the bais of his Avot.
5And these are the shemot haanashim that shall stand with you: of the tribe of Reuven, Elitzur ben Shede'ur;

17And Moshe and Aharon took these men which had been designated by their names;
18And they assembled kol HaEdah together on the first yom of the second month, and they declared their family after their mishpekhot, by the bais of their avot, according to the number of the shmot, from twenty years old and upward, one by one.
19As Hashem commanded Moshe, so he counted them in the midbar of Sinai.
20And the bnei Reuven, Yisroelʼs bechor, by their toldot, after their mishpekhot, by the bais of their avot, according to the number of the shmot, one by one, every zachar from twenty years old and upward, all that are able-bodied to serve in tzava;

28Of the bnei Yissakhar, by their toldot, after their mishpekhot, by the bais of their avot, according to the number of the shmot, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able-bodied to serve in tzava (army);
29Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Yissakhar, were fifty and four thousand and four hundred.

31Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Zevulun, were fifty and seven thousand and four hundred.

33Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Ephrayim, were forty thousand and five hundred.
34Of the bnei Menasheh, by their toldot, after their mishpekhot, by the bais of their avot, according to the number of the shmot, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able-bodied to serve in tzava (army);
35Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Menasheh, were thirty and two thousand and two hundred.
36Of the bnei Binyamin, by their toldot, after their mishpekhot, by the bais of their avot, according to the number of the shmot, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able-bodied to serve in tzava (army);
37Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Binyamin, were thirty and five thousand and four hundred.
38Of the bnei Dan, by their toldot, after their mishpekhot, by the bais of their avot, according to the number of the shmot, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able-bodied to serve in tzava (army);
39Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Dan, were threescore and two thousand and seven hundred.
40Of the bnei Asher, by their toldot, after their mishpekhot, by the bais of their avot, according to the number of the shmot, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able-bodied to serve in tzava (army);
41Those that were numbered of them, even of the tribe of Asher, were forty and one thousand and five hundred.

45So were all those that were numbered of the Bnei Yisroel, by the bais of their avot, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able-bodied to serve in tzava b'Yisroel (army in Yisroel);
46Even all they that were numbered were six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty.
47But the Levi'im after the tribe of their avot were not numbered among them.
48For Hashem had spoken unto Moshe saying,
49Only thou shalt not number the tribe of Levi, neither take the sum of them among the Bnei Yisroel;
50But thou shalt appoint the Levi'im over the Mishkan HaEdut and over all the vessels thereof, and over all things that belong to it; they shall bear the Mishkan, and all the vessels thereof; and they shall take care of it, and shall encamp round about the Mishkan.
51And when the Mishkan setteth forward, the Levi'im shall take it down; and when the Mishkan is to be pitched, the Levi'im shall set it up; and the zar (stranger, outsider, unauthorized party) that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
52And the Bnei Yisroel shall pitch their tents, every man by his own machaneh (camp), and every man by his own degel (standard, banner), throughout their tzva'ot (hosts).
53But the Levi'im shall encamp around the Mishkan HaEdut, that there be no ketzef (wrath) fall upon the Adat Bnei Yisroel; and the Levi'im shall be shomer mishmeret (watch the watch, attend to, keep the charge, the reverence) of the Mishkan HaEdut.
54And the Bnei Yisroel did according to all that Hashem commanded Moshe, so did they.

2‘Take ye up the sum of all the company of the sons of Israel by their families, by the house of their fathers, in the number of names — every male by their polls;
3from a son of twenty years and upward, every one going out to the host in Israel, ye do number them by their hosts, thou and Aaron;
4and with you there is a man for a tribe, each is a head to the house of his fathers.
5‘And these [are] the names of the men who stand with you: ‘For Reuben — Elizur son of Shedeur.
6‘For Simeon — Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai.
7‘For Judah — Nahshon son of Amminadab.

45And they are, all those numbered of the sons of Israel, by the house of their fathers, from a son of twenty years and upward, every one going out to the host in Israel,
46yea, all those numbered are six hundred thousand, and three thousand, and five hundred and fifty.
47And the Levites, for the tribe of their fathers, have not numbered themselves in their midst,
48seeing Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
49‘Only, the tribe of Levi thou dost not number, and their sum thou dost not take up in the midst of the sons of Israel;
50and thou, appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, and over all its vessels, and over all that it hath; they bear the tabernacle, and all its vessels, and they serve it; and round about the tabernacle they encamp.
51‘And in the journeying of the tabernacle, the Levites take it down, and in the encamping of the tabernacle, the Levites raise it up; and the stranger who is coming near is put to death.’
52And the sons of Israel have encamped, each by his camp, and each by his standard, by their hosts;
53and the Levites encamp round about the tabernacle of the testimony; and there is no wrath on the company of the sons of Israel, and the Levites have kept the charge of the tabernacle of the testimony.
54And the sons of Israel do according to all that Jehovah hath commanded Moses; so they have done.
